Protect Your Child's Future — Portage Michigan Minor in Possession Defense Lawyer
The legal drinking age is 21, but often, young men and women will have alcohol even if they are not of age. In Michigan, however, if your child has been arrested on a charge of minor in possession, of either alcohol or drugs, the consequences can be serious. And while college-age students at Western University and other local Michigan colleges are not likely thinking that they can be arrested after leaving a frat party — it does happen all too often.
Your child will lose his or her license and the arrest will result in a criminal record. This can affect a student's ability to obtain student loans, and it can affect his or her ability to obtain a job in a chosen career, because all employers do background checks.
You need an attorney who can look out for your child's best interests at every stage of a juvenile legal proceeding. My law firm is based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and I represent juvenile and adult clients who have been accused of virtually every type of crime, from criminal mischief and minor in possession of alcohol or drugs, to drunk driving, to felony possession of a prescription drug, to rape and statutory rape and other crimes.
I invite you to contact me in my Southwest Michigan law office to schedule a free consultation. You can also contact me online or call: 269-216-4573 or 888-527-6768. I can meet with you evenings and weekends, as well as during regular office hours.
Defending Teenagers Against Serious Felonies
Sex crimes and criminal sexual conduct (CSC) charges are extremely serious. I am an attorney who has been able to obtain case dismissals, unearth mitigating circumstances and minimize the consequences of serious charges like these. As an experienced criminal defense lawyer and former district attorney, I can be a tenacious advocate for your child, reviewing every aspect of the case, hiring a private investigator and other experts to uncover the important details of the case that may have been left out.
The firm regularly works with out-of-state parents whose college-age student has been arrested for MIP.
